Whats your best E.T. in 05 ?

OK guys, hit the track again lastnight. And i must say, after a year and 3 months off I'm not that rusty.The busa impresses me more everytime I ride it. Anyway, my best pass was as follows:rt .1001, 60ft 1.61, 330 4.28, 1/8mi 6.46@112 mph.  My best 60ft of the night was a 1.60.
1 question I have, where is everyone shifting ? I'm just holding it to redline. I'm sure there's a tenth there. Gonna get my airshifter and shiftlight put on in a week or so. hope to run some 6.30's before i extend it. View attachment 604151
Best 60' I've done yet is 1.64, still launching soft. I'm guessing that's where some more time is. Watched a video of myself, it's amazing how much that helps. I hit the button as soon as my tach shows 11k, seems to work good for me. Tomorrow is practice day......didn't hit my goal last week, try again tomorrow. Best I did so far is a 6.661, that was w/ a 1.75 60'. Is it Friday yet?
 
Hey thats a pretty good 60 ft time.  Not like my 2.1 60s i put up last night...man im such a beotch View attachment 604208

Best 10.6 at 138 mph 60" 1.8 very limeted experience all stock except 16 tooth front . New mods yoshi full system lowered and yoshi cams . Lowered 1 1/4 " front if i use strap how much lower would you go . Still way to slow 60" just need more practice some of the times you guys are doing are great .
 
Not sure what part of the good ole USA everyone races at, but it is HUMID down here in the Carolina's.

Last night at Rockingham, I ran 9.45 @ 146 with a 1.57/4.07 60-330 combo.  Also had a 9.48 @ 146 with a 1.57/4.08 combo, and a 9.47@146 with a 1.59/4.09 combo.  Had a bunch of bad runs (9.50s) the air was so thick I could lift my seat cowling off the bike by grabbing it from the top, it wouldn't even try to slip out of my hand.

I've read where a lot of guys here run 10s and stuff, well I can tell you from experience:  KEEP AFTER IT.  I race my Busa about once a week (lot's of oil changes and clutch cleaning), but all the track time pays off.  I'm down in the 1.5s and 4.0s now, for incremental times, and once I get some good air (not 90% humidity) I'll go low 30s, maybe some high 20s.

Keep practicing ...........  you will get better.
